Last week, Papa (i.e., my dad) drove Rama (i.e., my mom) down here to spend the week with us and help us out around the house. My dad has been guessing "girl" for the past three grandkids because he had three sisters and then three daughters and while he loves his grandsons A LOT, he has been talking about having a little girl for a long time. He finally got one. He has been so cute with her...telling me over and over how beautiful she is and calling every few days to ask what she's up to....which is something because I can count the number of times my dad has called me on the phone in the last five years on one hand.
Here is Renee and her Papa:
Where do I start with my mom? She spent the week here cooking and cleaning and doing laundry. She even ignored my extremely crabby and frustrated spells. We spent hours and hours taking pictures of the baby and managed to get some good shots. I didn't give up because of her encouragement. I get frustrated when things don't go my way these days and she was so patient. She didn't even think I was crazy when I cried every 15 minutes for no apparent reason. I guess she knows all about the baby blues after having three kids and reassured me that it would get better. It was SO NICE to spend some time with her and to watch her with her "dolly." My baby is one lucky little girl to have grandparents like you.
A sneak peek from the photo shoots my mom and I did with Renee. More to come when my baby figures out how to go more than 2 hours between feedings. 45 minutes at a time to blog just isn't cutting it. 
For some ultra cute pictures of my baby and to meet Renee's new boyfriend Max, check out Kim's blog. She took some really great pictures of Renee. Thanks Kim!!
